Welcome to Mulberry School!

The Mulberry School is an independent, private, non-profit school that provides children with the opportunity to learn in an environment that values curiosity and natural development. We work to "nurture the innate love of learning" by teaching children how, as opposed to what, to learn.

Serving the Bloomington-Normal community since 1971, Mulberry School is a cooperative institution where parents have the opportunity to participate in nearly every aspect of the school. It is this support and input that allows us to provide a unique learning experience for our students.

Multicultural Celebration

Cultural Diversity Celebration

On Friday December 18, our students enjoyed a celebration that spanned the globe (but didn't leave the building!) As part of this great Mulberry tradition, we transformed our classrooms into seven international destinations ranging from Spain to Romania to Germany - even the North Pole! This is a great way for our students to learn about holiday traditions in each area, taste foods from a variety of cultures, and fill their 'passports' with stamps. Thanks for all the assistance from parents - you really made this event a success!


We are accepting registration for the upcoming 2010-2011 school year. Call for a tour! Read about our school and the unique learning environment we can offer your child. Click here for information on how to enroll in our parent cooperative!
